Featuring abrasion-resistant polyester webbing, steel rebar hooks, and a self-locking snap hook, it supports up to 310 lbs.

## Description

PRO Stretch shock absorbing lanyards provide high quality compliance at an economical price and incorporate a unique stretchable design. They offer complete freedom of movement while reducing trip fall hazards, dragging or snagging by expanding to 6 ft. (1.8m) when taut and automatically contracting to 4 1/2 ft. (1.4m) in reaction to the worker’s movements. The design is lightweight and provides added comfort and safety. The unique inner core begins to extend and absorb energy once subjected to a fall, and limits the fall arrest forces to safe levels. A built in impact indicator provides easy visual evidence if the shock has been involved in a fall. All Protecta lanyards feature high strength, durable and corrosion resistant materials to stand up to demanding jobsites. 3M Protecta Energy Absorbing Lanyards help provide high quality compliance. The energy absorbing materials are designed to reduce the forces imposed on the user to safe levels and activate in the event of a fall. Various lanyard styles, webbing materials, lengths and hooks options are available to suit your specific job site needs.

Review: Ham Radio Towers - Regularly climb Rohn 45 and 55. Many years used nothing but a lanyard wrapped around the tower. This is a much better and safer system. Tower professionals would probably prefer lighter weight hardware. Equipment represents a good value and appears to be very well constructed.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is total impact length?**
A: There is 3 1/2’ of deceleration webbing in each shock pack contained in each leg. The way I learned how all lanyards work is:
3 1/2 Ft of deceleration webbing
6 ft leg on lanyard 
6ft tall person 
3ft safety margin 
18 1/2ft total needed to not hit the ground.
